Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Lebron James is an ignorant, America-hating, anti-semitic racist. As soon as he retires - if not sooner - he will disclose that he is an Islamist.

I agree. His rant was clearly racist and clearly he hates white people. He is a black supremacist but in today's world no one cares. He is part of the race baiting left wing neo-KKK who oppose anything white, European and American.
#1.1 Anon on 2018-12-24 11:02 (Reply)
Lebron James apologized, saying he was quoting rap artist 21 Savage, and didn't mean to hurt anyone. 21 Savage also apologized saying, "I love all people."
#1.2 Zachriel on 2018-12-25 10:16 (Reply)
His rant went WAY past what some rap artist said. His rant has been lifelong. He is a racist. Ironically a multi-millionaire racist whose wealth came from the very people he hates.

IMHO you know this is true and still cover for his racism. Why?

Anon: His rant has been lifelong.

This is typically where you would provide the evidence to support your claim.
#1.2.1.1 Zachriel on 2018-12-27 09:18 (Reply)
Yeah. What a racist.

RE CHIEF JUSTICE JOHN ROBERTS

It has become evident that Roberts' legal opinions are influenced more my his perception of public opinion than by his understanding of the US Constitution.
#2 mike m on 2018-12-24 09:52 (Reply)
Prostate cancer affects mostly men over the age of 65. So how many men of that age “ejaculate 21 or more times a month" ? Sorry researchers, get real.
#2.1 snopercod on 2018-12-24 20:39 (Reply)
CJ Roberts is being blackmailed.

His opinions are MORE influenced by his fear that his and his wife's ILLEGAL adoptions of his children, will be widely revealed and he will be proven a major scoff-law who should be immediately impeached!

BTW, where is the video disclosing RBG's latest "feats of strength" after her most recent cancer surgery? Hmmm?

RE FREQUENT EJACULATION

I told my wife that the evidence is hard to refute. She agrees, but says it's a bitter pill to swallow.

RE TRUMP

He doesn't know when to button his lip and he says and does a lot I don't agree with, but....

1. Gorsuch & Kavanaugh.

2. ABC (anybody but Clinton).

I'm not sure if America has crossed the Rubicon in terms of the Progressive decline into socialism, but Hillary certainly would have hastened that slide. As many have noted, once 51% of the people realize that they can get government to plunder the "rich" in order to give them "free" shit, our the days of our republic are numbered. Trump is basically a finger in the dike slowing down, but not reversing, the eventual collapse.
#4 mike m on 2018-12-24 10:05 (Reply)
Time and time again I think that "oh-oh Trump stepped in it again" and then time and time again it turns out he was right and his detractors and the legion of never Trumper's were wrong. So I'm not tired of winning yet, I want Trump to continue shouting, tweeting, commenting and keeping the far left off balance. I do believe that eventually the Rino's, never Trumper's and the far left (communist) will oust Trump. When that happens do not forget that it isn't Trump they hate it is YOU. That is why they are allowing mass immigration of replacement voters. That is why they want your guns. That is why they want people like Obama and Hillary to run the country. Trump stands between YOU and the crazy far left (democrats/communists) and THAT is why they are after him and why I love him.

The Grauniad strikes (out) again on Melania and The Donald. The Grauniad does not know what it does not know...or understand.

Don't expect Trump to stop being Trump: I certainly hope he doesn't. He'd blow all his support if he did.

China spies on everyone? Quel suprise!!!

Sam China spies on everyone? Quel suprise!!!

If I were a just little more cynical, I might think that besides the "insurance policy", all this yelling about "Russia!!!" was to turn our attention away from China.
#5.1 mudbug on 2018-12-24 11:36 (Reply)
I'm cynical...the dem/prog/soc/coms are punishing Russia for failing at communism and are deflecting criticism from their new heroic flag bearer China.

Remember that leftist California is joined at the hip with Communist China, including entering into illegal treaties with that country.

"Girl Scouts: Your Daughter ‘Doesn’t Owe Anyone a Hug’ at Christmas"

I'm not sure what I should think about this. On the one hand some people are huggers and some are not. But I feel like this is a PC feminist thing that is nothing more than a demand for attention while I poke my finger in your eye.

Fine! Don't hug. But I hope the boys can be more social and not act like spoiled brats.

Happy Kwanzaa.

Kwanzaa’s seven principles “are identical to the seven principles of the infamous Symbionese Liberation Army, the murderous, bank-robbing gang of revolutionary terrorists who kidnapped newspaper heiress Patty Hearst in 1974
